What about a boss gt? Probably on the upper end of your price scale, but would be a good choice!

He's not one to mod cars so the gto is out. Also doest like the styling which I get.

He is considering the GXP as he is really impressed by my lightly modded grocery getter but he BMW is winning out over the Pontiac.

What about an 07 Audi S-4 or 08 RS-4. 4.2 v-8 and quattro. They grip like a Mofo and with the 6 speed and short ratio it moves right along.

We discussed it. I advised him to stay away as he is buying used and Audi's out of warranty can be scary. I used to have an S4. He is going to drive an RS4 though.

I have an 07 S-4. I know it just my opinion but other then eating alittle oil (has since new) I have had no problems with it. Its alittle stiff on virginia's crap roads but it rides on rails when you put a little twist in the road.

I really don't know that market. I've been looking at late 80's 930's recently. I think the 911 market will be all over the place, depending on which model he is looking for. He could probably find one.
